Cause and effect. The past is never still — it moves with us. Memories replay like echoes, whispering of choices we could have made, paths we could have taken. I’ve felt that heaviness: the constant pull of “what if.” The struggle to let go, to stop negotiating with the past. But here’s the truth I’m learning: the echo isn’t a punishment. It’s a reminder. A reminder that we lived fully, that we cared deeply, that we risked something real. When we stop fighting the echo and instead listen, it becomes guidance — showing us what we’re ready to release, and who we’ve become because of it. ✨ What echoes are you still carrying, and how are they shaping you today?
